Rodeo








Sweater: H & M // Shirt: H & M // Hat: Urban Outfitters 
Pants: Charlotte Russe // Shoes: Traffic // Purse: TJ MAXX // Necklace: ETSY


I have been falling in love with H&M, their style can be casual or dressy, depending on what you're looking for. This sweater has a wide-cut with a straight- style. It's fine-knit and I love the long sleeves and the orange color. It's perfect to transition to spring! The back is slightly longer and the edges are a bit rolled for a casual look. I decided to tie the side of the sweater because it was a bit too long and I wanted to show off the striped button down I wore underneath. 

I wanted to play around with color for this look and add different textures with the button down and the wide-cut sweater. Then to add extra color, I went with a bold blue purse that contrasts well with orange. All I've been wearing are jeans, this one and a few others that are similar, but they are all so comfortable ! I love Charlotte Russe for their jeans!

Thank you so much for stopping by!

yellow in winter










Sweater:H & M  Vest: The Limited Scarf: Made by me, Fabric: random fabric store
Purse: EXPRESS


Happy Wednesday babes! 
I'm so excited to share with you my first ever sown scarf! It really wasn't that hard and I had so much fun making it! My sister got me a sewing machine for Christmas because I want to start sowing my own clothes together, I'm no professional but I love learning! I started off with something easy and let me tell you...PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. hah! The scarf was so big and warm, when I would forget a hat, I would just pull the scarf up to cover my head. Let me know if you want a custom made one, just support me with the fabric!

These double breasted vests have been very popular so I decided to play around with it and give it a shot. It's perfect for the office or for a day out shopping, I wore it to lunch in Hoboken over the weekend with a group of girl friends. I wanted to play around with color since this scarf really inspired me, so I went with a bright yellow sweater. This would also be perfect for the spring, I can tell yellow is gonna be a hit this spring. Since I wanted to focus on the colors from the scarf, I went with tan boots and purse for a more casual look. 

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Indiana Jones Meets NYC









Cardigan:Francesca's // Scarf: EXPRESS  // Hat:Urban Outfitters // Jeans: Charlotte Russe 
Watch: JCPENNEY // Purse: TJ Maxx // Bracelets: Alex & Ani , ICING , AVON // Lipstick: MAC "rebel"

Happy Weekend!
I wore this outfit over the weekend and was looking for something more on the casual side, because well, its the weekend. I saw this scarf and knew that this is what I wanted to build my outfit off of.  This wrap/ cardigan is so comfortable so I knew I wanted to put it on. As mentioned before, I've been wanting to add more details and accessories to my outfits, so I decided to throw in this fun "Indiana Jones" hat, my sister called it. Haha! This look was fun and effortless, yet still looks great together. Since I was working off the colors from the scarf, I went with these brown booties. So because I don't usually like sticking with one color or similar colors, I decided to add some blue! Hence why the random blue watch, bracelets, and clutch.
Thank you so much for visiting!
